Description
Beside the espresso, the counter features blueberry scones, croissants, and small ham and cheese baguettes. Because the indoor space is compact, it is best suited for solo visitors or pairs. The staff are friendly, though visitor feedback on the menu is divided: some guests enjoy the Americanos and baked goods, while others report mixed experiences with coffee quality and pastry freshness.
